Ok so now the horseman are going to "help" Atlantic City become a destination spot once again and save the slowly dying NJ gambling mecca? You have a better shot of winning the Mega Ball lottery!!!
Anti-Meadowlands Casino Side Starting to Crumble?
Could time be running out on Atlantic City's monopoly in New Jersey? According to The Record, politicians on both sides of the aisle are starting to see Atlantic City's situation as being hopeless and unless Atlantic City starts showing some positive results and soon, the pro-AC sentiment within the legislature may begin to crumble.

Of course this doesn't mean it's time to start building the slot parlor in the Meadowlands; far from it. First of all the Governor and Senate President need to evolve on the issues; especially the President as he decides which bills get posted for a vote in the state Senate.

The assumption has always been a new casino would come to the Meadowlands and as of now it is the leading candidate. However Monmouth Park has been quietly lobbying for a casino as well. A casino in an entertainment district makes perfect sense, but who is to say the Essex County delegation which holds significant sway in the legislature won't seek casino gaming in Newark? Any new gaming in New Jersey requires a constitutional amendment and the more possible locations listed in a new constitutional amendment, the harder it will be to get an amendment through the referendum process
